Miscommunication during a remodeling project can cause delays and affect the quality of the end result. In this article, DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Reno, the area’s top choice for kitchen cabinet refacing and home remodels, explains how to prevent miscommunication between you and your remodeling company.

Choose the Right Remodeling Contractor

You will need to interview remodeling companies carefully. Choose a company that you feel a strong rapport with. Ask for local references and talk to previous customers so you can evaluate their work for yourself.

Get a Detailed Contract

Verbal agreements do not provide protection in the event of a dispute. As one of the most experienced interior remodeling contractors in our area, we recommend getting everything in writing with a detailed written contract.

Ask Questions About Remodeling Lingo

If you’re unfamiliar with any of the terms your contractor uses, don’t be afraid to ask for clarification. For example, “allowances” in a contract refer to open-ended amounts for materials and products. These allowances can stretch your budget if you are not aware of them.

Establish a Mode of Communication

Your remodeling company will be your working partner for the duration of your home renovation, so you need to agree on modes of communication. Let your contact know whether you prefer to be contacted by phone, email, etc., and the best times to reach you.
